Noodles & Company

This one on the West Shore opened about 6 months ago but I haven't had a chance to visit (more like totally forgot about it). Recently they ran a promo with a $5 off for downloading their mobile app -- a perfect opportunity to try it out. The place was surprisingly crowded, thanks to the holiday shoppers. We got the last table. The lady taking my order was very friendly. The dining area was organized and clean. Much like Panera Bread and Bonbon Cafe, you order and pay at the counter and the server brings the food to you. We order 3 Noodle dishes: - Spicy Korean Beef Noodles $8.69 - Steak Strogenoff $8.79 - Alfredo MonteAmore $8.59 We put the number placard on the table, and within 5-10 minutes our noodles were served. The Korean Noodle was good, very spicy, but that little bit of tangy-ness got old near the end. My wife's Strogenoff was OK. My son loved the Alfredo though a bit too cheesy he said; chicken was nice and tender. All noodles were cooked al dente, good texture on each bite. They gave generous amount of proteins for all 3 dishes. I thought the prices were very reasonable. I wish they have a location downtown Harrisburg near work so I can have quick noodles for lunch from time to time.

Worst Noodles and Co I've ever been to. We were the only people in the restaurant, so that should have tipped us off. Staff was friendly but food was horrible. I ordered chicken and what I got looked and tasted like burnt cardboard. When they brought us our food they gave us only two forks and one knife. Also the pot stickers my boyfriend got were served at room temperature. Would not recommend.

Take out customers beware. We ordered from here last weekend using the app. While waiting for our food to finish a lady came in letting the employees know they forgot two items in their order. When mine was ready I checked to make sure I had everything. Unfortunately I didn’t look close enough to see that although I had the right amount of items, they were not correct. When we called to let them know they gave us the wrong food and my wife could not eat her meal because of the ingredients, they said they had gotten another call and someone got our order and they would refund the cost. You can guess how far that went. Three wrong orders in a manner of 10 minutes is pretty bad.
